Volleyball with a medieval siege machine? Since our middle school classes are distance learning about catapults, I decided to also make one from home. Supplies were limited, but hey... creativity can come from constraint! #mbcatech #mbcamoments #stem #pitscoed #stemeducation #edtechteachers #middleschoolteacher #distancelearning #virtuallearning @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel

6th grade bridging the gap with distance learning. These civil engineers have demonstrated that creativity can come from constraint... building some truly impressive and creative bridges with limited supplies at home. #mbcatech #mbcamoments #distancelearning #stem #middleschoolteachers #stemeducation #civilengineering @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel

Virtually engaging our MBCA middle school students by innovating distance learning with some costumes and Zoom backgrounds! Also wondering if the screenshots may come back to haunt me someday! #mbcatech #mbcamoments #stemeducation #edtech #edtechteachers #stem #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #stem #zoom #tinkercad #pitscoed #tynker #middleschool #virtuallearning #distancelearning #python @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel

Thank you both Tynker and Zoom! As our school transitioned quickly to virtual school, our 6th grade Technology class pivoted and started Python 101 on the Tynker platform. Zoom also has allowed us to gather as a class and have a sense of community. Also thankful to these 6th graders who put up with their crazy Technology teacher who loves the Zoom virtual background feature! #mbcamoments #mbcatech #tynker #zoom #edtech #stem #coding #stemeducation #python #distancelearning #virtualschool @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel

As we transition to virtual school, some photos from the physical classroom of our 6th graders building their MakeBlock MBot robots to learn about robotics, sensors, and autonomous cars. The little bots will have to wait for our students to return from virtual school days to show what they can do!! #mbcatech #mbcamoments #makeblock #mbot #edtech #stem #edtechteachers #stemeducation #robotics @mbcamiddleschool

Series vs. Parallel? Switches and Resistors? Even Breadboards? Our 7th grade is learning about circuits and electricity. Next step is simple motors, generators, and renewable energy... all in preparation for building their tiny village based on green electrons. #mbcatech #mbcamoments #greenelectrons #renewableenergy #stem #stemeducation #edtech #edtechteachers @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel

Using TinkerCAD, our 6th graders designed and 3D printed some incredibly complex and amazingly beautiful Washington DC buildings and monuments. We had fun placing their 3D prints on a map and then talking about their upcoming trip when they will get to see these buildings in person!! #mbcamoments #mbcatech #tinkercad #autodesk #3dprinting #stemeducation #edtech #edtechteachers #middleschoolteacher @mbcamiddleschool

Enjoyed cheering on our middle school archers today! Watching them inspired me to plan a STEM challenge on medieval siege machines. I bet my “tech class archers” will shoot a bullseye on this next STEM challenge!! #mbcatech #mbcamoments #archery #stem #edtechteachers #middleschoolteacher #teachersfollowteachers @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel

It may not be tech, but it’s cool to watch our drama students working hard on their sets over Winter Break. Middle Schoolers + Drama + Paint = Terrified STEM Teacher with Goof Off. #mbcatech #mbcamoments #steam #techtheatre #backstage #middleschool #teachersfollowteachers #teachersofinstagram @mbcamiddleschool @mtbethel
